Last Day of Filming


These are the photos of the location that we have filmed earlier on today:


The filming went alright and it is quite sunny even though it is winter season. We thought that we would use the same location because it portrays how and who the female character flirts with when she was still with her ex boyfriend. This scene will replaced some parts of the chorus because we thought that the one we have on our music video doesn't look good. So we decided as a group to film one last time to make our music video even better and the narrative is clearer to the audience .

Shooting schedule

This is the shooting schedule for our last filming. We decided to do this as a group because it would help us organise the things that we need, the location it is in, who the characters are in each shots and the date we are going to film.


Additional Shotlist

These are the shotlist for our last day of filming. This would help our group to organise what to bring and it saves time for us to film because we know what to film.

Additional music video ideas

We decided to change the narrative of our music video a little bit as we want to make it clearer to the audience on what mistakes she has made. We thought that if we would use another male character and then the female artist's is flirting with him then she doesn't realise that her ex is stood on the side looking at the them. He then started to confront both of them and  push the other guy, the female tried to stop him and she walks off with the other guy and left him on his own. This is where he realised that her gf doesn't love her anymore so later on he decided to break up with her.

These are the examples of music videos that portrays our concept:

Where we are going to advertise our product?

We have nearly completed our music video and we have discussed in our group where we could advertise our music video, digipaks and magazine advert. We thought that it would be good to advertise it where teenagers would normally spend their spare time.

These are the industries that we thought of advertising our products:
  • Viva, 4 Music
Viva and 4Music are the most popular channels where teenagers would normally watch and listen music videos. They are mainly playing pop music which is the same genre that we have chosen to do.We thought that we should advertise our music video in their company because we are aiming at the same audience. Young adults also like to watch music channels but also like to watch the soaps on an evening, so the best place to advertise on the TV to target all our target audience would be on music channels. It would be ideal to advertise it after school as well so the teenagers that goes to school would be able to watch and see how it looks like. 
  • Heat, OK

These are the industries that we are going to advertise our digipak. After the research we did for our target audience, we found out that this are the magazines on what our target audience wants to read and buy. Heat magazine is also the company that made a compliment about our music video which implies that the audience would buy it. Also they tend to be more sociable people who enjoying keeping up to date with fashion trends and the latest music out.
  • Twitter & Facebook
We thought that we should advertise our magazine advert on social networking sites such a Facebook and Twitter because this is how teenagers spend more of their time. They are more socialable people they liked keeping up to date and talking to their friends all the time. It is going to be placed on the side of the page so they would be able to see it. I also want to have animated banner of our music video so it grabs the audiences attention. Also teenagers are more active nowadays so it would be beneficial if we would do it as well.
